14·10 days agoAnd when Framework says they “aren’t yet competitive,” that may be something of an understatement: Phoronix’s Michael Larabel points out that even a Raspberry Pi 4 mini-computer is likely faster than the quad-core 1.5GHz RISC-V StarFive JH7110 SoC you’re getting here.
Not meant for consumers but could be a good option for people who want to develop on it
The main board is meant to be swappable, too, so you can move also go an AMD/Intel main board and have two computers in one, sort of

If this plays like wish it means you have to put the blue eyes white dragon in your sideboard in order to play it during competitive play
Of course this card would be allowed in competitive play but I think the idea of putting a blue eyes white dragon in your sideboard is very funny

I don’t have the highest degree of confidence in it but it makes sense to me that absorption matters more than reflection because a lot of the reflected UV will be going through the shirt and onto your skin
That’s why materials like linen aren’t as good for UV protection. They’re light weaves and let a lot of light through, still
Tradeoff is dark colors absorb more UV so it provides better protection from the sun
I know it’s referencing this but don’t know enough about Bayesian probability

Having to parse what ‘!includes’ means is harder than just ‘excludes’ and, while that cognitive load is small, it builds up!
Paris Major, of course
I originally thought the wheels had oxygen in them somehow but they’re just benzene rings

I’m sure everyone choosing to do this has their personal reasons. Personally it reminds me of why certain people go vegetarian/vegan: they think this kind of consumption is bad and they’re trying to resolve cognitive dissonance. It’s a way of creating new habits that more closely align with their values.
Another way it has vegan/vegetarian parallels is the social effects. Tips and tricks you find of social media can make it easier to do. If you’ve been thinking about taking the pledge then seeing it on social media can act as a reminder. Lastly, if enough people do it then it gets easier. But nothing groups, clothing swaps, etc. makes it easier for other people to participate in a virtuous cycle.
I doubt this will move the bottom line, but I do think it’s a good thing and it doesn’t need to be wide spread to bring value to people participating

I can’t find any evidence that they were founded by her but she did help found the climate action fund which has donated a large amount of money to them as well as Extinction Rebellion

I think she’s probably genuine but that’s also besides the point. Whether she has alternative motives or not all that really matters is whether the activism is helping or hurting
